Today we’re going to talk about how you can use beets to support liver detoxification. Beets have a lot of amazing properties. They can actually bind and hook up toxins and poisons and convert them to water-soluble particles. Beets can essentially help transform poisons into non-poisons. 

Other benefits of beets:
• They support the eyes 
• They support the blood pressure and arteries
• They help reduce fat from accumulating on the liver 
• They help prevent DNA damage (decreasing the risk of cancer and shrinking tumors in certain places in the body) 
• They are loaded with vitamin C, manganese, and copper  

If you’re going to consume beets, I would recommend that you steam them for no longer than 15 minutes. They’re great to have on salads. Beets are higher are high on the glycemic index, but they have a low glycemic load because they’re high in fiber. This means that they won’t spike your blood sugars unless you juice them. You can steam them, cook them (but don’t overcook them), or have pickled beets.

This is uncanny, i was just this morning browsing the internet trying to find good info on the effects of beet on the kidneys and liver. I could not really find anything clear and concise. And bam here is Dr Berg. Crystal clear and articulate, beyond par. Thankyou Dr.

Every morning I have 600ml fresh veggie juice made from carrots, celery, red capsicum, cucumber and beets (which we call beetroot), and sometimes parsley or fresh peppermint. I've been doing this for decades. I'm 68 and am totally fit and healthy, not on any medication, no arthritis, never sick, and exercise 1-2 hours every day. Thanks Dr Berg for all you do to promote healthy eating and lifestyles.

When I was receiving treatment for stage 4 cancer I craved beetroot and broccoli. Literally ate my body weight of these two vegies. This was an awareness of To listen to what your body is asking for!!

Just made some pickled beets today from beets I grew in my garden. Made some fermented veggies too with my carrots. I am a diabetic but I still eat beets, peas and carrots from my garden for the health benefits. I also grow broccoli, onions, tomatoes, ground cherries, cukes, beans and peppers. Nothing better than just picked from the sweat of your own brow!

Happy Father’s Day, Dr. Berg. You have helped so many millions of people around the world, including me — I been following you since 2017 and went from nearly 400 lbs to 170. The opportunities that have opened up for me after getting healthy are indescribable. I am sure that I would not have had these opportunities, experiences or gotten healthy if not for your advice and products. You changed my life and you made it SO much better. Thank you for all you do, Dr. Berg.

O.k. I am 70 years old and have been to see a nation wide opptician on a few occasions, no mention of food to help my vision, same as my doctor about my arthritis, but taking Dr Bergs advice both have improved tremendously

Dr Berg I am a whole completely new person from following your videos.I can’t be more thankful. I dropped triglycerides from 190 to 95 for example.I lost toxic weight. I don’t have a gallbladder and don’t have access to your formula because I live in a third world country so I am struggling over constipation but improving following your wisdom and knowledge.I like your videos because they are short, to the point and soothing. I love to see your handwriting on that board, it drives my attention and appreciation of your noble caring for people.

I found a way to cook beets that I love. I cut in small pieces, toss with coconut oil, nutmeg and pepper. Bake in casserole dish with parchment paper without a cover. At 350 for 35 mins. Yum!! I added butter today after they were done. They were even more delicious.

My mother, who turned 85 today, was asking me about beets this morning. Great timing!

[luxuriousfir]

I'm a drummer. I'm fueled by beets :] roasted beets with red onions balsamiq blue cheese diced parsley and walnuts absolutely amazing!!!

I've been doing the Liver Body Type program for over three months, using your products, and although I've seen a worsening of my symptoms, I feel that my liver is going through a long-term healing process. At 77 I have suffered my whole life from a whole range of symptoms that no one ever realized was the result of a non-alcoholic fatty liver. Now that I know what is causing these symptoms I am able to deal with them and begin to see improvements. When I first read the list of symptoms in your book on the Body Types, I couldn't believe what I was seeing. I had almost every one listed there! Now I am happy to say that things are beginning to get better for me. Thanks so much, Dr. Berg!

Happy Father's Day! Thank you for helping us all with our health! Health is wealth!

I lost over 98 pounds by taking in beets! It’s sooo good for you

I cleared the gallstones out of my gallbladder by drinking beet-apple-carrot-ginger juice every morning on an empty stomach. Felt relief after the first day and continued for 3 weeks. Helped my digestion a great deal.

I like to bake beets (the root) like a potato and then eat them skin and all. They take on a toasty sweetness that is far tastier than all other preparations. I've also tried to eat the greens (the leaves) but when I steam them they become limper than over cooked spinach. And raw they have a salty taste. So for now I'm sticking with the baked whole beets.

[flamingpieherman]

Dr. Berg I've been working on my liver and this came at a good time. I had forgotten about the good old beets for cleansing.... always figured they had too much sugar! I will definitely be doing that now

[lindagates]

How timely ! yesterday, I bought a package of steamed organic beets I just added a cup that I diced into my homemade chicken soup thank you for the prompt.. they cooled the soup to a perfect temperature. I am glad that it will help my liver and eyes. For many years I was under height for my weight now I have a perfect ratio 🖖🖖🖖👍👍👍🥳🙋🏼‍♀️
